Kernel files do not change regularly and therefore are contained in the /boot directory, not in the

/var directory.

What is the /var directory?

According to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, the /var directory contains regularly-changing system files. This comprises spool directories and files, and administrative and logging data.

Answer option A is incorrect. System log files are stored in the /var directory.

Answer options D and C are incorrect. Print spool files and email-spools are variable data files and therefore are contained in the /var directory.

The scp command copies files between hosts on a network. It uses ssh for data transfer, and uses the same authentication and provides the same security as ssh. Unlike rcp, scp will ask for passwords or passphrases if they are needed for authentication. Any file name may contain a host and user specification to indicate that the file is to be copied to/from that host.

Copies between two remote hosts are permitted.

The above command runs the cc command in the background at a lower priority than the default priority set by the nice command.

Answer options D and A are incorrect. There are no such spell checkers as inspell and spell.
